Our obsession with true crime isn’t about a love for violence. It’s a deep-rooted human desire to understand the unthinkable. 🔍

The Lecture Lounge is back on Sunday, June 21st at Coppertail Brewing Company for an investigative look into The Psychology of Our True Crime Obsession.

We’re bringing a top criminology expert to the stage to decode exactly why we stay glued to the screen, how media warps real-world investigations, and what our favorite “guilty pleasure” secretly says about us.

Stay tuned. Our expert speaker reveal drops this week! 🕵️‍♂️
